Varying Electrical Current And/Or Conductivity In Electrical Current Channels

US Patent:
8614873, Dec 24, 2013
Filed:
Apr 15, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/066514
Inventors:
James T. Beran - Richmond VA, US
International Classification:
H01H 47/00
US Classification:
361139
Abstract:
Electrical current and/or conductivity in an electrical current channel varies in response to spatiotemporal magnetic flux pattern and/or to variation in electromotive force (EMF). For example, a channel with time-varying electrical conductivity can have induced electrical current variation due to flux pattern resulting from electrical current in another channel or set of channels; the current variation can increase magnetic flux density. The electrical currents can be transient electrical currents, and can cascade to amplify a resulting electromagnetic waveform. A channel can include the channel of a zener or zener-like diode or of a transistor, as well as an extended conductive channel. Channels can be configured in electrical current loops and in various orientations and combinations to obtain current and/or conductivity variation. A transient electrical current can be triggered in a channel, e. g. by an EMF peak, and circuitry with a combination of EMF triggering components can perform logical and timing operation.

Obtaining Information About Brain Activity

US Patent:
8626264, Jan 7, 2014
Filed:
Apr 8, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/384730
Inventors:
James T. Beran - Richmond VA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600407, 600410, 600436, 600544
Abstract:
A brain imaging system can be operated to obtain brain image signals indicating activity at brain locations, and information can be extracted from the brain image signals. For example, for each of a set of living human brain regions that can have two or more possible activity features such as qualia features, feature values can be obtained indicating activity features of the region. The feature values can be more explicit than brain image data indicating activity at brain locations. A data structure can be produced that includes data indicating extracted information, such as qualia value data for a quale activity feature that can occur in a region. Such a data structure can be stored on a storage medium and used in diagnosis and/or treatment of detrimental conditions of consciousness.
